It has been a period of youngsters in Tamil cinema. There have been many promising new faces that have made good impressions and also delivered the box office results. They did come pretty close to scraping into the top 20, but the kind of competition that exists has seen them get edged out. Vinay did well in his debut with Unnale Unnale and continued the good work with Jayam Kondaan while Ajmal played contrasting roles in Anjathey and TN 07 AL 4777. Lawrence continued his commercial entertainment ways while Aadhi proved the breadth of his spectrum with Mirugam and Eeram.
